Happy Fall

Fall has officially arrived and I couldn't be happier. I love the colors,the smell of woodsmoke, cool crisp and foggy mornings and the beautifullight that only comes with Autumn. I hope the season brings you muchhappiness and only good things!

The last day of Summer afforded me one last Summer Giveaway. I wonthis fantastic bird house from Marie at Emma Calls Me Mama. Mariehad a drawing for all the people that participated in her Heirloom Partyand I was the LUCKY winner. What a great way to end one season andstart another. Thank you Marie and Hudson Goods!

A while back, at the start of Summer, I won this pretty piece of fabric fromMarsha at Sassy Mini Dolls. My original intention was to make a pillow formy bed, but I changed my mind. I tend to do that. LOTS. Here is what Ifinally decided on after much deliberation...

VOILA!

A new blanket for my Hollie Foo Foo girl to lay on when she decides to gift me with her presence and lays on my bed. She likes CUSH does this diva dog.She needs a soft place to rest her bones, like me. Her old blanket is getting old and falling apart at the seams so I thought a new one was in order.

Yes, she thinks it will do very nicely. She and I gladly thank Marsha for thepretty pink and yellow gift and our Nana, who graciously sewed it for her. Because I can't.

I also intended to premiere my new blog on the first day of Fall, but
remember what I told you about that mind changing thing? It has reared
it's ugly head and I just can NOT decide what to do. I've learned to play
with the HTML codes too and that is adding to my problems. It's giving
me too many options! But it's SO MUCH FUN! This is what I've been
doing lately during my computer time, which is why I've been delayed
in commenting on your loveleigh blogs some days. I've been distracted
by the allure of Mr. HTML!!! So I'll shoot for October 1st. I think I
can hit that target date. Hopefully!

Thanks for stopping in today, hugs out to all
of you on this beautiful day!

Oooohhhh dear! my oh my! yes, I know what it's like to search for the best template for a new look for the blog!!!! It turns you insane, really!!! You sit there with your eyes red, downloading a thousand and one templates and then when its time to decide which one to pick, you can't! haha! But then in the end, you are rewarded with a better-looking blog! :)

That blanket is soooooo pretty!!!! It's so bright and happy!!!! Oh can I have it??? Would Hollie Foo Foo mind so much??? :)

I have a French poodle who sleeps with me at night. Somehow, when I wake in the morning, her head is laying on my shoulder!!! hahaha!!! :)

We had a foggy morning today - loved it! The blanket is so sweet and your little one looks so cute on it! Perfect. I applaud you for wrestling with HTML. I've dabbled a bit, but I must admit it makes me crazy!

Hi Sares,Many of us are full of good intentions ... I intended to spend less time on this 'puter and more time on my bears ... but who can resist stopping by to visit their friends? Great post!Hugs,Sandi

Little Miss Holly Foo Foo looks so sweet and charming on her new blanky her Nana sewed for her. Who would ever guess what a PAIN IN THE ARSE she can be...sometimes!Sares...thank you so much for helping with my "new blog image"! Had lots of great response!!!

I love fall, too! Except the weather has not been very fall-like around here, LOL! :)So, I can't wait to see the new blog premiere. When are you going to teach me some HTML?p.s. I love Hollie's new blankie. I miss Hollie foo-foo!

I have been fighting the html, css and more. I so understand. I think my expectations way exceed my skills. But, I am back reading again, and settling for the time being on my blog, web, and "grown up" blog. Happy Autumn.

Hi Sares...I'm back to annoy you!I have an award for you here if you'd like to accept it.I realize that some bloggers are "Award Free" and rules sometimes must give way to practicality. So, even if you can't play along please accept this award and my sincere belief that you deserve it.Hugs,Sandi

Sares,I love your baby Hollie doggie...she is so cute. She reminds me of my Sadie Mae in so many ways.I'd be excited to see what you'd create for another blog...I've been tossing ideas in my head too.Autumn in Washington is coming but slow. Summer is trying hard to hold on even thought the seasons have changed. Odd for our part of the world but the weather out there has been hot and still in the 80's. But the gnomes are organizing the shed and getting their little rakes ready, because soon the yard will be a patchwork blanket of leaves.

Hi, Sares,I can tell little Hollie loves her new quilt! Congratulations on winning the giveaways. The bird house is so cute, too. I also love autumn. Thanks for dropping by for a visit. I look forward to seeing your new blog. I love your blog now, your blog header is one of my favorites, but I know how it is when you want to change things up. Vicki

About My Header:

I use pictures from Pinterest/Google images most of the time for my headers because the pictures are so much better than mine! I never claim them as my own and if I ever inadvertently use one of yours and you wish to be given photo credit or for me to remove it, I absolutely will. Until then, I thank all the fabulous photographers out there who add such beauty to the world and to my blog!
